We should choose where our pictures go! - simmy1smeeve - 30-03-2008 08:38 PM

I was thinking right now, I like to take screenshots in sims. But they automatically go to the album when I want to save them on my computer! I would like it if we can change the location of our pictures, so I can share my sims with friends. (If you know how to get the pictures help is appreciated!)

Yeah but mine don't go in that folder. I just checked.

Go to
My Documents/ EA Games/The Sims2/ Neighbourhoods/ [the hood you took the pic in, Noo1 = pleasantview, N002 is strangeville, and so on]/Storytelling.

But actually I prefer a screenshot software like Gadwin Systems Print Screen. It saves the screenshot automatically to an album/folder of your choice. The pics are much bigger too, since it captures the whole screen.

No need for that, just glad I could help. ^_^

Whenever you take pics with the in-game camera, they should be in there.

I just got tired of the in-game cam, since it saved the pics as .jpeg files with crappy quality even after put all the camera setting on 'high'.
So I switched to PS. LOL xP
